Nice vid. FYI, did this job Saturday, and you don't need to remove the front fascia. Just the input pipe to the turbo & throttle & bottom splash skirt. Put the car on ramps or jack stands, and remove the SAI (secondary air injection) pump ; it's held on by two T40 bolts + snap connectors in/out/power. Removing this will let you remove the vertical pipe from the intercooler to the throttle (they didn't in the video). This gives much better access to the oil pressure sensor. Note I had to bend the aluminum AC lines slightly to fit the 1 1/16' socket in there. // Total job took 5 hours, much of which was getting the three E10 torx bolts on the vert pipe back in their holes. HTH. Cramped engine bay! As for the buttered biscuits, yes please.
День добрый. На Ютуб на русских роликах нет как меняют этот датчик. У меня 9-3 второго поколения, 284 мотор. Хорошо что это видео вообще нашлось. Я думал поменять датчик это быстро. Ага,судя по видео это долго и не просто. На 2м поколении так же меняется?
Just replaced the sensor on my car today took me an hour. I don't have to removed a lot of things as this video shows. I just removed the airbox pipe, intake to IC pipe and just moved the remaining one aside. It's tight but doable. Slim arms helps a lot. I just use a regular 27mm deep socket but I did have to pull up AC line a little for the socket to go straight to the sensor. Just be careful not to pull on it hard as it could break the line. This video gives me idea. Fix my low oil pressure warning on high rpm/ WOT. Oil sips on the connector side so old sensor is leaking specially when oil pressure is high, it is just a matter of time before it will eventually totally fail. Thanks for the video.
I just had my done and mechanic removed the fan which was a little difficult and long hose like you said. Also, the battery box but he didn't touch the front of the vehicle , took 3 hours thxs for video
Just did this on mine. Wasn't all that bad actually, didn't have to move the rad or mess around with the front end, just a choice selection of tools and contortionism and all I had to do was move that boost pipe in front the engine across a little after getting the bolts from above and below
As I was walking out of the bank today telling my father hey I’m going to do a oil change on the car today I get back in start her and this is what happens I have a 2007 saab 93 aero on my page in my short video section go check it out 115,000 miles on her
I have the message on my 2006 2.8t intermittently. It has come on since I change the engine oil and filter. It is on for a few seconds and then goes away. Am I wrong in thinking the sensor should leave the message on if it was faulty?
@@zmenace7463 should have justttt enough room to sneak the socket in there. Go under the AC line. If you have to, I've heard of people bending the lines slightly, but I wouldn't trust myself to do that.
Hi I've been drinking while watching this video so may have missed it, but how did you know it was the sensor and not the pick up seal thing in the sump?
@@KenCarTechMeow what is your oil pressure light on constantly., at cold start, or when slowing to an idol stop? Mine has been coming on for a couple of months When I slow to an idle only and engine is running fine with no apparent oil leaks. Thanks for any info! Oh, saab is 2000 93
helpful video. I was able to get in there by just pulling the turbo downpipeand inlet pipe from the AMM. I moved the IC up pipe to the side and bent the bracket on the engine out of the way and bungied it to keep it there. a oil sender socket like this one www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002SR27Y/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 its only 2 7/8 long and has flat edges to help remove it. 1.5 hrs all in and it was really tight, I had to put and extension on my ratchet to break it loose
My oil pressure light on my 06 comes on occasionally. Car seems to be running fine & the oil levels are fine. Guess mine is a sensor. Aside from the pain in the butt message, is there any real danger in driving the car for awhile?
Zero danger if it is the sensor. If. The scary thing is that if you actually are losing oil pressure that could be catastrophic to your engine. I don't really go over testing oil pressure and hooking up a tester at that port in this video though.
I guess it's the sensor. Hook up a scan-tool and read the oil pressure. If it's 0 or 6 BAR constantly the sensor needs te be replaced. Don't drive with a faulty sensor.
I think it's a standardized GM part. That one was picked up at AutoZone, just a parts chain in the US. Esaabparts.com maybe also at least get you a part number to work with. They also ship internationally.
@@OG_DSM The 2.8T in this video isn't mine. I have the black 08 XWD combi. 06 2.8T? Heat kills everything in the engine bay. Everything.

Thank you for all your helpful information it really helped. Your video was the only one I could find to help.
Great video! Thanks. I've had the sensor for about 5 months now, dreading doing this. Definitely gonna do next weekend. Cheers.
I've had one in the boot for two years awaiting this job

Sounds like you found the best solution, so what did you end up removing to gain access?

Mine is the same.. comes only one when I cold start the car and put in in reverse.
@@Michael-mo1lx I ended up changing the sensor and no more error messages. Was quite an exotic job, to say the least..
@@t1mpetti Yeah I can Imagine great you have not error anymore
I'm told a 1-1/16" arbor wrench works for the sensor switch. (like for a craftsman saw)
Yep. Or a crow's foot wrench.
Спасибо. У нас в сети не нашёл такого видео.
When did it turnt on when you drive or when your start?
🐒
@@KenCarTechMeow ?? Mine goes only on when the car is in reverse.. thats why ask when I go forward nothing comes on. Only in cold start
🐵
How did he put the new one on? I’m stuck right now because nothing fits.
Deep well socket. Or, grab an oil pressure sensor socket at a parts store. I just did another Saab 2.8T today with one, actually.
Another SAAB Channel I bought the sensor socket but the ac line is in the way.
@@zmenace7463 should have justttt enough room to sneak the socket in there. Go under the AC line. If you have to, I've heard of people bending the lines slightly, but I wouldn't trust myself to do that.
Another SAAB Channel I got it thank god! Thanks for the video man. Really helped out. Follow me on Instagram @s.a.a.b.s.t.o.r.y
Another SAAB Channel Liked and subscribed 👍
Are there any torque specs for the new sensor? Just curious if its just hand tight or ....?
There likely is a torque spec. I'd ASSUME it's low, like 20 ftlbs. Download WIS (saab workshop information system, google it) and double check.
@@KenCarTechMeow This is correct🙂
Hi I've been drinking while watching this video so may have missed it, but how did you know it was the sensor and not the pick up seal thing in the sump?
The engine hasn't self destructed after running with the light on for thousands of miles. Admittedly that's a shitty test.

@@itsrighthere1370 2000 9-3 is completely different. Nothing in this video applies.
doesn't look like the 2006 2.8 sensor...what yr is that saab

Use a crows foot to remove and then install the Oil Pressure Sensor. Instructions in SAAB WIS.
